20 Years of the Cancer Prevention and Control Research Network (CPCRN): Past, Present and Future

In 2002, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the National Cancer Institute collaborated to launch the Cancer Prevention and Control Research Network (CPCRN), a thematic research network within CDC’s Prevention Research Center Program. A subset of funded Prevention Research Centers and affiliated academic investigators work with public health practitioners and community partners to translate research into practice to reduce cancer disparities and promote health equity. This webinar will celebrate the 20 years of the CPCRN network by highlighting tools and programs collaboratively developed and implemented, discuss current works in progress, and explore areas for research and practice growth in implementation science.
